Just got done with this project that's been in the works since January! (Took so long mostly because of procrastination )

 

Character bios are coming soon! Constructive criticism and feedback is welcome.

 

Also just added the bios for each character along with their stats, so take a look!

So I'm gonna be rather honest here. For the most part I kind of enjoy these mocs, given they are like a half-way point between protector and toa. The builds are a little lack luster, but I always say why build something overly complex when something simple will work just as well.

 

However, With the Defender of Earth and Fire, and possibly stone, I feel there isn't much difference between their builds and the regular Toa builds, especially in the DoE. Though aside from that one minor thing, these are rather nice. Can't wait to see them have actual weapons and whatnot.

I definitely plan on working on them later. These are only their basic builds, and wanted to get them out ASAP. Thank you, though.

Garrus defender of jungle? Do we have a Mass Effect fan here?

Mass Effect or not, they're cool MOCs. Not extraordinary, but they certainly look like something LEGO would actually release.

Haha, sorta. My friend needed a name for his MOC and Garrus is pretty close to his real name and I happened to stumble upon Mass Effect as well and thought, "This'll work."

These are pretty neat, but as Voxumo said, there isn't much to differentiate them between the actual Toa.

As said before, these are just the basic builds using what little Toa and protector sets I have, I just wanted to get them out ASAP, so be sure to expect that in the future.

First, the most defining characteristic of a person is their head and torso. So since heads are basic here, let's work on the torso.

 

This is a good base to use:

It's Pohatu and a Protectors frame. (You can use any toa frame to get a different result)

 

Next, optional, use a hip joint. My usual is a Vakhi hip attached by a Y-Joint.

Which also leaves a lot of room for armor.

Then customize the armor however you choose. Complex or simple is up to you.

For a rough and rugged character: partially conceal the neck, widen the shoulders, shrink the hips.

 

For a closed- in or reclused character: Keep the main focus of the armor towards his/her center. With less on the outer parts.

 

For a feminine or flamboyant character: Widen the hips, widen the chest, keep the shoulders and lower legs thin.

 

For a sporty character: Put more armor on the joints than anywhere else.

 

For an agile character: Keep the body thin.

 

 

If you need more help, let me know.

Me either, I've only done one completed MOC. The one in the photo is a WIP.
